CNSeg-class
(Package: CNTools) :
Class "CNSeg" contains the output of DNACopy segmentation data
Segmentation results of copy number data can not be operated by other analysis tools such as classification. The class "CNSeg" provides methods to convert segmentation data into a (what is called Reduced segments (RS))matrix format so that other computations can be performed
RS-class
(Package: CNTools) :
Class "RS" contains the Reduced Segment data matrix derived
The class contains the Reduced Segment data matrix derived from the output of the segment method of DNACopy and provides functions to manipulate the data or perform other computational operations
diffBy-methods
(Package: CNTools) :
A filter that filters out features that do not differ by a set threshold between a pair of samples
madFilter With a given threshold, the method checks each pair of samples to exclude features that do not differ by the threshold between two samples. This filter is only applicable to pairs of reduced segments
getRS-methods
(Package: CNTools) :
method that convert segment data into reduced segment matrix
getRS takes a CNSeg object containing the output of the segment function of DNAcopy and format the data into a matrix based on overlapping chromosome region (by = region", gene (by = gene) or pair overlapping chromosome region (by = pair)
